Pete's Log: I don't get it

Entry #1303, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 24 years old.)

I'm going through my INBOX. I'm up to 532 messages. My philosophy is pretty straightforward. If it's more than a few weeks old, I probably don't need to keep it. This seems a pretty good basis of selecting email to save. Especially since much of what I'm coming across is messages concerning May 2002 graduation deadlines or stuff concerning my VLSI design group. I took VLSI during the fall 2001 semester. I'm pretty sure I needn't save those messages anymore.

So I have come across a few interesting emails. The most entertaining ones tend to be the ones I send myself. Sometimes I send myself email that contains information I needed to record in a hurry. Other times I apparently send myself email while on crack. Such as this one:

What's wrong with me?

I got contacts again. I've been about a month and a half without them. I finally went to the eye doctor this week and got my eyes all checked out. The doctor was very enthusiastic about the health of my eyes. "You've got very healthy eyes," he would say. Or something like that. There were also details about good blood circulation or some such. But it's cool, because with my new contacts, I now have 20/15 vision. Sweet.

I didn't fall asleep until six this morning. Boo.
